Where Were We?• Some modules on Arena Community Server – 80 shared modules– 108 shared reports

• Redmine.RefreshCache.com• 32+ projects (modules)

• A cumbersome module market/store• IRC channel with decent participation

Where Are We Now?• Community Server– 100 shared modules– 132 shared reports

• Redmine.RefreshCache.com– 44+ projects (modules)

• 3-4 Partner ChMS Platforms– Several of which you can contribute directly to.

Where Are We?

• Open source sw & project mgmt tool (Redmine)

• Github usage• But still no manageable marketplace/store

Where Are We?• Greater participation in IRC #ArenaChMS

channel• RC conference initially contracted after the-

Great-ChMS-Shakeup-of-2011™ but then back up to about 40

Good Participation

Where Are We Going?• A few of us are looking at some open source CMS

as a possible future ChMS foundation• If we go down that path we would initially begin

spending our personal time working on the initiative

• And later, possibly our normal work hours (pending approval of leadership, etc.)

RC 2010

Where Are We Going?

• Announced the Spark Development Network & our intentions to start building Rock ChMS

RC 2011

Three Four ChMS• We’re not just for a single #ChMS vendor

anymore!

Quote

“The idea of open source is all about community. Doesn’t the church represent what community should be all about? Who better than the church to embrace open source?”

- David Carroll

Where Are We Going?• CITRT / Church IT Network?• ICCM?

* These quotes are from last year’s RefreshCache

Where Are We Going?• Simple, easy to use plugin/package

distribution system• Discussion?

Future RC Invites• What other ChMS or “Tool” communities should we invite to RC?• Criteria

– Must be active– Must be awesome (or at least not mediocre) – I prefer free or open source solutions, but am open minded.

• Possibilities:– OneBody (Ruby on Rails)– Sheepology (Django, DOA?)– Fellowship One– PCO

WHERE ARE OTHERS GOING?Thou shall not judge…
